Method
Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, charcoal powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
Mix the Wet Ingredients
In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Cook the Pancakes
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil. Pour 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes, then flip and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
Serve
Stack the pancakes on a plate, serve warm with fresh berries and drizzle with rich maple syrup.
